    My thoughts – I would run a series of CA-CULPRITs (or other report writers with an idms interface) to build flat files of data (pulling in the FK/PK currently pointed to by only an owner key)

     

    Then use some process to interrogate the unloaded (tape? Bdam? VSAM?) with appropriate joining of data to form logical data structures for reporting purposes
